Situational Writing 4

Dear Dr Lim,

I am Alicia Tan, the person-in-charge of Best Primary School's Young Readers' Club. We would like to invite you to be our guest speaker at one of our weekly meetings on 25 April 2010 (Saturday). The talk will take place at the school library conference room.

We would like you to speak on your new titles and other books that you have published in the past. The purpose of the talk is to cultivate the love for reading. We have chosen you to give the talk as you have an interesting personality, are lively, young at heart and popular with young people.

The members of our club are between six to eleven years old. Their interests include reading storybooks, comics, watching movies made from stories, story-telling, listening to stories, dramas, poetry recitals and activities related to books.

I will be very happy if you can accede to our request as you are a renowned writer. We look forward to your favourable reply. Thank you.

Best regards,
Alicia Tan.

Pointers:
(1) Remember to introduce yourself sufficiently such that the recipient knows who you are and is able to reply you.

(2) Remember to ask for a reply politely.
(3) Paragraphing is important. Do not cram all the information into one paragraph.

Homework:
(1) Corrections for situational writing
(Write the whole letter if you scored 12 and below / Correct your mistakes if you scored 13 marks and above)
(2) Spelling on 16 April (Phrases 1-15 from "Anger" list)
